Doesn't that apply to weather much more than it does to climate?

- chrisco255 7y agoClimate is just the average of weather over a long period of time. It applies to both. The only difference is the units. There are hundreds of cycles and factors that influence climate. We don't have all of them modeled, nor quantified. So there are unknown unknowns.

It's quite possible (even likely) that the odds of a major hurricane hitting Florida next week are down to "a non-linear, dynamic system" and you're tying to predict which why the storm will "veer off wildly", while the average number and total intensity of storms over the next ten years is neither of those.
